02:53:17 <Mekkis> !item sadist's lash
02:53:19 <diebot> Mekkis, SADIST'S LASH [strong abjuration and conjuration] CL:11 none 22301gp, 1lb
02:53:19 <diebot> A sadist's lash is a long whip of thin strips of leather. Created originally by a special sect of wizards who served under Runelord Sorshen, sadist's lashes swiftly became quite popular throughout Thassilon. The lash acts as a +1 wounding whip, and also aids enchantment spells in two ways. First, it can deliver enchantment spells with a range of
02:53:20 <diebot> touch as if the wielder had touched the creature struck. Additionally, any creature that takes damage from a sadist's lash takes a -5 penalty on Will saves against all enchantment effects created by the wielder of the lash for 1 minute unless it succeeds at a DC 15 Will save.

03:11:34 <Mekkis> moin
04:06:33 <Avatar> anyone know where to get ebooks on the cheap
04:06:40 <Avatar> not amazon
04:25:24 <Mekkis> Avatar, I generally manage it after lunch.
04:36:10 <Mekkis> Hey Brunius
04:36:16 <Brunius> what up
04:36:41 <Mekkis> Standard Things
04:37:34 <Mekkis> Work
04:37:42 <Mekkis> Yourself? Nearly done with highschool?
04:38:14 <Mekkis> Need to pack for Brisbane
04:38:48 <Mekkis> Avatar, irc.undernet.org?
04:38:52 <Mekkis> in #bookz
04:39:35 <Avatar> brand new ebooks
04:39:43 <Avatar> like pre-order today, out tomorrow
04:52:04 <Brunius> One more exam, tomorrow
04:52:13 <Brunius> Then I'm free to waste time in my own inventive ways
04:57:04 <Mekkis> Yay
04:57:11 <Mekkis> What's your plan after that?
05:00:57 <Brunius> go to uni, become a cog in the corporate machine
05:05:39 <Avatar> you don't have to be online
05:05:43 <Avatar> you weren't online when I messaged you
05:06:00 <Avatar> Brunius: pathfinder, you mean !
05:07:45 <Mekkis> Brunius, Which uni, which company, which machine?
05:08:02 <Mekkis> Some machines aren't bad to be cogs in.
05:08:07 <Brunius> Swinburne, THE MAN
05:09:14 <Mekkis> Which MAN?
05:09:24 <Brunius> you know
05:09:25 <Brunius> THE man
05:10:15 <Mekkis> There are several of them
05:11:37 <Mekkis> And which machine
05:16:32 <Mekkis> (which subject, at least)
05:16:46 <Brunius> Bachelor of Engineering (Robotics and Mechatronics)
05:16:49 <Mekkis> Please tell me it doesn't have the word 'game' in the title
05:16:58 <Brunius> Ideally a double degree with Computer Science
05:17:11 <Mekkis> Oh? One of my cousins did that, at RMIT
05:17:29 <Brunius> I considered RMIT, but their course didn't seem as interesting
05:17:34 <Brunius> at least from the open days
05:19:48 <Mekkis> Fair enough. Planning on doing the commute?
05:20:41 <Brunius> Yeah, should be moving in to ringwood though
05:20:48 <Brunius> so I might start playing PFS there, too
05:21:06 <Avatar> they don't allow PFS at ringwood anymore
05:21:13 <Brunius> why>
05:21:15 <Brunius> ?
05:21:44 <Avatar> I think they wanted to be a cards game only store
05:21:58 <Brunius> classic
05:22:14 <Mekkis> Ringwood is where Blackburn moved?
05:22:22 <Brunius> Blackburn moved to Box Hill
05:22:31 <Brunius> Ringwood is uhhh
05:22:33 <Brunius> Next Level?
05:22:38 <Avatar> I think secretly ringwood had an issue with the noise level
05:22:58 <Mekkis> oh
05:23:06 <Mekkis> Then why not kick out Yugiyo?
05:23:31 <Avatar> I don't know what that is
05:23:54 <Avatar> I did notice we were always the loudest people in there, even when we weren't really being "loud" per se
05:24:03 <Avatar> the other tables were always really quiet, which was why we liked it
05:24:13 <Mekkis> That would explain it
05:24:15 <Avatar> unlike box hill
05:24:25 <Avatar> that's not what they said to stephen though
05:24:32 <Mekkis> Avatar, the trading card game people play before they realise that Magic is much better
05:24:54 <Mekkis> To be fair, PFS doesn't bring much revenue for the game store
05:24:58 <Brunius> I'm told that magic is the tcg that people play before they realise l5r is much better
05:26:03 <Mekkis> Brunius, perhaps
05:26:17 <Avatar> I went up to buy some water at the beginning of that game, and the girl seemed reluctant to serve me, and when she did, she asked me if we had planned the game last minute, because they wanted to know in advance that we were coming
05:26:52 <Mekkis> But you have to realise that Magic is the only TCG that's been able to support itself without relying on some other product tie-in.
05:30:27 <Mekkis> So Brunius, what have you planned for the next three months? I have some suggestions...
06:44:53 <Mekkis> nope, can't help you
06:54:06 <Avatar> thx anyway
07:00:54 <Avatar> holy ice seems like a very high spell level for what it does
07:01:04 <Avatar> sounds like it's almost akin to produce flame
07:01:20 <Avatar> a bit more for the ice wall
07:01:34 <Mekkis_x200> seriously? It was awesome today
07:01:50 <Mekkis_x200> fire up to 15 ice bolts at someone?
07:09:10 <Avatar> 1d6+2 per javelin?
07:09:18 <Avatar> is that multiple on a full attack?
07:10:01 <Avatar> or do you fire all of them, as many as you can cast, in the same round as the spell?
07:10:08 <Avatar> I guess that would make it better
07:33:08 <Mekkis_x200> you fire them all when you cast the spell
07:33:27 <Mekkis> Avatar, I really like what you said there
07:33:38 <Mekkis> "You can't expect to say "I'm using this character for roleplay and you're all going to sit down and play". That's never going to happen."
07:38:01 <Avatar> so 9d6+18 when you can first cast it, at multiple targets with multiple attack rolls
07:43:36 <Mekkis_x200> yep
07:43:47 <Mekkis_x200> great against mirror image
07:47:28 <Avatar> hmmmm excellent point
11:02:47 <appferreira> hello
11:12:32 <appferreira> is anyone online ?
14:35:42 <Avatar> yo
14:35:51 <Avatar> you don't want to spectate a game first

17:52:24 <appferreira> ok, thank you very much for your help Avatar
18:20:46 <appferreira> hi there
18:22:09 <appferreira> ive seen recently pfrpg.com site and i was wondering how can i spectate a game session first ?
18:26:03 <appferreira> can you people help me with that? thank you :)
22:18:02 <Avatar> too difficult to retroactively decrease them
22:18:20 <Mekkis> hm
22:18:20 <Avatar> I don't think it's mentioned in the wording of ability drain/damage
22:18:30 <Avatar> int-based skills would drop because of the int score
22:19:48 <Mekkis> I'm not talking drain/damage
22:20:09 <Mekkis> I'm talking if an eidolon stops taking Ability Score Increase (Int).
22:24:11 <Avatar> not sure how that works
22:24:19 <Avatar> isnt' that just a permanent increase
22:25:31 <Avatar> good day captain
22:25:49 <Ulzef> hey anyone know where the rules for edges if your square are i am having a gm say i cant use a tower shield effect to face down or up
22:25:54 <Ulzef> and hello
22:26:26 <Avatar> no facing in pathfinder, it faces every way
22:27:24 <Ulzef> yeah tower shield can be set block a edge gming is saying that does not include up or down
22:27:39 <Avatar> squares aren't really squares
22:27:42 <Avatar> they're 5ft cubes
22:27:51 <Avatar> unless it needs to be dug into the ground, it should be fine
22:28:17 <Ulzef> i know that he is wanting me to find it write otherwise i have to abide by his ruling
22:28:52 <Avatar> why does he think it doesn't include up or down? because of the 5ft cube thing or the must be dug into the ground thing
22:29:07 <Avatar> the latter would be the tower shield wording
22:29:23 <Ulzef> i am actually playing a kineticist and can make a wall that needs no attachment and wanna make a lvl ground with it in 5ft a tine
22:30:58 <Ulzef> its gitch being a prat and demanding the rule
22:34:31 <Avatar> some commonsense would apply, you're not going to find a rule that says you can use a tower shield left, right, forward, backwards, up and down
22:36:15 <Mekkis> Avatar, actually, they're not 5' cubes
22:36:30 <Mekkis> they're 5' squares, with some strange stuff for altitude
22:37:01 <Avatar> what strange stuff
22:37:08 <Avatar> pretty sure I've had it confirmed they are cubes before
22:39:04 <Avatar> !spell expeditious excavation
